The Routers
CR6400 Routers
The CR6400 routers are 2RU and about 10” (254 mm) deep. The 2 models in the family are visu-
ally identical, except for the legend on the I/O cards (3Gig or AES) at the rear.

Other CR Series Routers
The routers are slim (35–57mm or 1.38”–2.25”) and mechanically similar, differing principally in
the number and type of connectors, and of course, in the signal type supported. The fronts of all
the 1RU routers are the same except for their legends and the fronts of all the 2RU routers are
the same except for their legends.
The 3Gig, HD, SD, AES, and analog video routers have BNC connectors. The analog audio routers
have DB25 connectors (and fans). The machine control routers have RJ-45 connectors.
